Country Music Awards (Impression

    I can't offer a critique:  the show was on, but for most of it I was in another room, could hear, but did not view. I'm so out of the country music loop that I recognized only a few names, and was unfamiliar with almost all of the songs that were performed or even mentioned. A general impression was that most numbers sounded alike, and that the presenters were more concerned with their own appearance than any interest in the show itself. Most noted:

   1) The dowdiest outfit ever was worn by religious music singer Amy Grant. The black onesie was about 2 sizes too big and looked like a version of an old housecoat someone once gave my mother.

2) Bad haircut award goes, again, to Nicole Kidman's husband. His lank and stringy hair looks especially out of place when he rocks it and flings the strands over his face. 

3) Worst song ever, "Run, Maggie, Run", a tribute and blatant concession to today's  dog-o-centric society. Couldn't they just have resurrected "Old Shep?"
